"The Remedy" comes from Humanistic, the debut from Abandoned Pools, which Extasy International released in September 2001, and it's Tommy Walter's work through and through: he wrote the words and music and co-produced it with Sean Slade and Paul Q. Kolderie. The album is regarded as a Walter solo record in all but name, built from fresh material alongside songs he had worked up in Tely and Metromax.
Humanistic swings between serene, upbeat songs and dark, gloomy, at times aggressive ones, and "The Remedy" belongs to the shadowy side. Josh Freese drums, with Tim Dow adding extra drums, and Chris Lord-Alge mixed it with Matt Silva assisting.
